My point is that a major attack like 9/11 by a few thousand radicals does not justify killing thousands, maybe millions of civilians because a lie he spew to the American people.
We're now having home grown attacks in 2016 ALL OVER THE WORLD because it's easier to make a point. Security is at an all-time high so another 9/11 is probably unlikely so they try to turn mentally ill people and convert them to their goals.
That's why we need to focus more on gun control, mental illness, their online presence, and bring unity among groups in the country and not have that hate crime of Muslims like we saw yesterday. Our presence WW attacking their bases, etc. has been an immense success.
As Troye said, had Bush never put us in those wars we could focus more on home grown attacks than cleaning up the mess that he started. Obama cannot be blamed for anything we're experiencing now. It started way back during Reagan's presidency.
A foreign entity kills thousands of Americans and your solution is to focus on home grown attacks that weren't happening? What? Not saying Bush and co handled it well, as we should not have gone into Iraq but ur reasoning is flawed and you're flat out victim blaming.

Not what I said. We're still dealing with an unnecessary war. I said OBAMA could've currently been dealing with home grown threats (which was inevitable). I never said BUSH had to do the same. I commend Bush for strengthening our national security after 9/11 (which is why I said big attacks like 9/11 is rare today in the US)

Payback. Trump is the most dangerous nominee in US history so anything to stop him is welcomed. He's a compulsive liar. Karma is a bitch, and she's giving it to him bad this month.
No shade but the U.S. position in the Middle East isn't just Bush's fault. It literally goes back to WWII and the years after when the OSS/CIA got involved, Zionist movement, etc. It's been a long string of **** ups, Obama is comparatively a lot better when weighed against the history, imo.

!!!! Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr., and Bill all have their fair share of missteps. But Bush Jr. was a complete failure of an administration. Obama, as in every aspect, had to pick up the pieces.

Another excellent point that I forgot to factor in. I just find it hypocritical for Republicans to be pointing fingers for the position the country finds itself in (as it's not just Democrats responsible for it).

The real question is why is the middle east so messed up? like will they ever get it together?
The Middle East has been a mess since the Biblical Days.
Ehhh sorta. It's hard to rewrite history but if British/French imperial forces didn't essentially hold some of the countries hostage for oil it would likely be a lot better off. And a good number of the autocratic regimes in the mid 20th century were propped up and supported clandestinely by American anti communists who were scared of Soviet influence on a democratic society. The west has a considerable part in forming the modern MENA region, whether we like it or not.
Hillary Super-Pac has suspended ad buys in Virginia, Colorado, and Pennsylvania until last week of Sept. at the earliest. They will be spending the money in other states TBA.
Georgia and Arizona here we come. South Carolina, Indiana, and Missouri are probably in the ranks as well.

If Hillary does take Georgia, AZ, Mizzou etc it'll be really funny because TYT were talking about how Hillary will just "narrowly" win but if it was Bernie he would win all the swing states.
